Comic: A retro gamer’s confession

I’ve been feeling a lot like this lately, so here’s a pathetic MS-PAINT comic to make things worse. Feel free to download it, paint or alter it to your heart’s content and post it back. It’ll be an interesting experiment.

Quickie: Comic Sans anecdotal

Here’s one thing about me: I’m not particularly a hater of Comic Sans. Nor a fan. I never got why there’s so much hate for the font, even though aesthetically is quite bad. But, I’ve gotta admit: This thing isn’t for writing everything.

Expensive toys: Nokia Lumia 820 Le User Review.

 

Yes. I am an overspender. In grim times of economic crisis, some people are losing their jobs. Some others are losing their homes. What do I do about that? I bought an expensive ass phone. Do I feel guilty about it? Not really.

Why Mobiles and Tablets haven’t quite reached gaming yet (or why despite the bloom of mobile gaming, new consoles keep coming)

 

You know what? As you’ve seen already, I love gaming. No matter the console, the platform or the shape of the device that runs games, I just love them.

But after MANY hours playing games on my iPod Touch and my Motorola XooM tablet, I can’t help but think that those experiences feel more empty than my DS and 3DS could offer. Hell, after a full hour of Infinity Sword 2, I had the URGE to play something at one of my consoles. Anything on any console. Even PC!

Cheap-o-matic review: The Atari Flashback 3

I don’t know about you, but I love the Atari 2600 (or CVS).

Sure, it’s old and it’s graphics are primitive and the sound might cause your inner ear to bleed, but it’s charm is undeniable. That’s why ATARI and the seemlessly “queen of licenced clones” AtGames released the third installment of Atari Flashback.

 

Wow. I’m on Reddit?

Yeah. Even though I never thought this blog would be noticed, it somehow hit Reddit. Well, the “interwebz” are kind of a small place. The article in question is “10 fun facts about the Dreamcast for new and casual gamers”. The bad thing, the article turned out to have many inaccuracies. The good thing, some interesting stuff was said at the comments from really descent readers.

So, Those guys deserve a blog post.

Review a bad game day: Oneecanbara Bikini Samurai Squad

 

Ah industry of Video Games. The joys you give to us when you spout shit our way and expect to sell just because there are boobs slapped over. I mean, really, we all enjoy boobs, ninjas, pirates, robots and other generic geek friendly themes, but things Like Oneechanbara Bikini Samurai Squad are just shameless.
